Player Target Range

Post by DnB-Freak »

I'm using a complex script which is dependent on the players target in range:
SetActivatorToTarget(0); It doesn't work beyond 1024 mu.
Is it possible to extend it in any manner?

Is the question to difficult or is it just uninteresting?

The range is hard-coded. It'd require an engine change to be extendable.

I’d assume something like PickActor could be used if a user needed a specific range.

PickActor seems interesting, I'll try that one.

Thanks for the tips and info, guys :)
